How Much I Lied Lyrics

Darlin', there is one thing I must tell you, you must know
It's so hard to say the words I feel
This fancy that I'm on is been going on too long
It's time to stop pretending things are real

'Cause I've been livin' deep in sin, I've been livin' blind
And I just don't know what's right or wrong
To take a chance on losin' you is such a silly thing to do
A chance I might wake up and find you gone

Blue, so blue, my love is burnin' blue
Any private flame could be a lie
Blue, so blue, my love still burns for you
But I know I'll only make you cryElvis Costello & The Attractions - How Much I Lied - http://motolyrics.com/elvis-costello-and-the-attractions/how-much-i-lied-lyrics.html

A thief can only steal from you
He cannot break your heart
He can never touch the precious things inside

Someone like you should surely be
Miles and miles away from me
Then you'd never care how much I lied

So try to understand the pain
It takes so long when I explain
Please, don't you forget how much I lied

How much I lied, how much I lied
